Children of Catechetical Age
Ages 7 to 17
Mark 10:14 "let the children come to me, and do not stop them, because the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Ascension Catholic Parish welcomes older children seeking to know Jesus and is here to support them in their continued growth in the Catholic faith. Ascension Catholic Parish offers a program for children who are ages 7 to 17. If your child has not received the Sacrament of Baptism, we extend this invitation to you.
Registration for 2025 - 2026 is Open June 1st, 2025.
​Baptism Preparation involves in-person sessions with both the parents and children participating. During the sessions, we provide the family with the teachings of the Church and preparation for Baptism or Profession of Faith (for those who have been baptized in a non- Catholic faith).
Children who are in grades 2 - 5 are also required to register for First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.
Children who are in grades 6 - 12 are also required to register for Confirmation.
